This paper provides information that will benefit water utilities and municipalities by
highlighting vulnerable points of utilities and strategic planning for protective measures against
natural, accidental and intentional disasters. Most probable natural disasters include tornadoes,
fires, severe weather (Thunderstorm, Lightning, and Ice Storm), flooding, and earthquakes. Other
accidental and man made disasters include hazardous material spills, and acts of terrorism and
vandalism. The security improvements recommended address both computer network and
operations security as well as physical security. Implementation of a comprehensive security plan
will allow the Utility to identify and effectively respond to security breaches in a timely manner. Includes 15 references, table, figures, appendix.
